deelady; You received that much snow in Central Ohio! We expect snowbanks taller than our cars up in Michigan's U.P., but in Ohio?

Ah, but now that I'm over the shock, that picture is a winner. I raised 2 boys and 2 girls of my own and was/am an adoring father and lover of children. They are so innocent, trusting, and loving. They want to learn everything and are unencombered by prejudices, pre-judgements, and just want to make freinds. I wish more adults were like children. And you, you look like a lady who loves her children, and who takes time to enjoy the time you have with them. Kudos to you.

Actually this was my first winter in Ohio (orig from Cali) and from what they tell me that snow fall/blizzard was not of the norm...so they say!
But it wasn't so bad, I survived it...not bad for a Cali girl huh!
And thank you so much for your comment, how very sweet of you I do adore being a mother as well as a teacher and I have always believed we could learn so much from them. Take a couple of three yr olds and observe them playing for an hour...you will be amazed the lessons you learn...

In Joisey! You's from Joisey. Why, that's right next to that last tree shown in a Bugs Bunny cartoon, and near to our good freind BuckyTom. You ought to get together with him. He's a good guy, and close.

Nah, I'm not a Joisey goil. My grandmother lived in Cranford for eons, and my brother was born in Plainfield. I spent many a summer at my grandparent's summer cabin in the Delaware Water Gap area, and whenever my dad got stationed somewhere new (Air Force), we would stay in Cranford until things were set up at the new base for us kids. My daughter ended up living in Scotch Plains last year (and a year in Philly before that, where that little guy was born). My son-in-law is a pastry chef, so they move a lot. He's now at the Fairmont in SFO and I hope he stays in the city and they never move again! So, I won't be able to visit with BuckyTom, darnit.
